What If I Did Things Differently with The Entertainment Man Talk Show....

Been thinking about this the last few months and decided to do a blog post anyways. Please note I am not putting any of my ex staff I mention in the blog down, I just stating the truth that I could of done things differently.

# 1: I could of not brought on Eric, due to the fact he screwed me over and the behavior towards the other staff back when Durham Entertainment Today still existed. Also him assaulting in 2010, so he shouldn't have come back in 2015 whatsoever. Technically I should of never brought him back after Durham Entertainment Today ended as well.

# 2: I should of never trusted Brent with a The Video Projects Team Staff Badge at all due to the fact, he ditched the team and not giving myself, Larry or Justin any notice and running off with his Staff Badge, when he should of handed it back. 

Those are the 2 people I should of never brought on The Entertainment Man Talk Show, Larry, Justin and I could of handle the seasons on our own and we could potentially end up going into 9 or 10 seasons. Another thing I should of not done until The Entertainment Man was done, was not try and bring Everything About Reality TV until one project was done and over with, that was my major fatal flaw I think losing Larry, but I am happier where I am at with both EAR TV, I am doing what I feel passionate about and going to interview Jeff, one of my personal friends, going to interview Justin and Diana as well from The Amazing Race 27. So I got a few plans with my website planned and I am in a happier place now. 


Have a great rest of your Saturday!

Officially Done With Casting!

I have casted on so many different various video and audio only platforms, making me realize, I think my days in casting is now done. The video platforms seem to come and go very very fast and the constant drama with platforms and the recent account ban, I received from YouLiveNow.tv, for no apparent reason, but I have decided to leave casting for good. Vaughnlive didn't work out, I got banned and my friend Jackielee turned on me and doesn't want to hear my side of the story when a guest was pissing me off and i did the right thing, I could care less. IVlog I haven't been happy with IVlog since it opened and never really wanted to cast there, however it is a nice platform and the layout is very very nice. There are not very many platforms that seem to catch my interest right now.  Twitch I had 13 year old drama, not Darkostridjer a former mod, hes been nothing but a good true friend to me, even after I got banned under my chrisbontheweb Twitch account, I tried Stream.me however it wasn't for me and people were not being nice and the trolls being a pain in the butt. 

So in retrospective, I am happier now doing what I do best is the Podcasts on Audio ONLY and of course these blog posts for you guys almost on a regular basis. I know what about Blogtv.ca? Well I was going to give it a try, however I think in my best interest I think I will keep to what I am doing now, plus I got tons of time on my hands on my spare time to where I can spend it with the family or play video games, or even watch movies or TV for once, but when I was doing YouTube, I was casting EAR TV several times a week and it got exhausting after a while. Would I even consider going back to even Twitch in the future, maybe, depends on the time I got in the future and time will only tell. Please note I am not putting any platform down I am just stating the facts and the truth behind why I am done with casting all together, for now at least...



Have a great rest of your Saturday,

Tyrone Parade of Lights & 70th Blog Post!

First of all this is my 70th Blog Post, cannot believe it has been this many blog posts already and time has flown by very very fast and I am only 30 posts away from 100 and trust me it will be a special one indeed. I cannot believe I keep on writing these blogs for you guys and I am sure you guys are enjoying my blog posts each and everyone that comes out on a almost regular basis. Trying to keep on a daily basis, however at the most it is every second day at the most if worse comes to worse.

Anyways the main focus of this blog post is the Tyrone Parade of Lights up in Tyrone. Obviously I went with my dad and my 5 year old niece and nephew and was neat in a way to share this experience with them and what I do as a blogger, going to local events and taking pictures and writing a blog post about it. This is what I enjoy on top of the podcasts I do on the website. So we arrived we got cookies and hot chocolate for the kids, always for the kids as Dan Gheesling says on his playthroughs. I didn't indulge due to me still on my diet and I am on my diet till i lose the weight I want. So the wait started, I was cuddling with my niece which before we went, she was being dramatic, typical 5 year old... yes... I played around with her we were playing around with the snow that was on the ground and what not. We then eventually moved down the road a bit and it began. I recognized the first tractor, the white one with the stars sticking out so we knew that was always in the first or second tractor. Some tractors or truck in the farming community we didn't recognize so was nice to see some new entries as well as entries from past parades. In conclusion the parade was once again amazing and loved every moment of it. Below is a few pics.

Have a great night everyone!

Late Birthday Blog!

I know I am very very late, well 4 days late I know and my birthday was back on Monday, but however that is beyond the facts. Yes I had a good birthday it was a very productive day for me out of any birthday I have had in any of my birthdays over the 31 years I have been on this earth...  First thing I did was go out to Staples to get my Staff and Alumni's tags done as it had to be done an I decided out of all the days of the week to actually go and get this done before I forget to do it later in the week. So after that I came home and had a smoothie for lunch and a oatmeal bar. Then I went off to my 1 pm appointment as I normally do every 2 weeks on a Monday, then I went to see my grandma briefly for my birthday, came back went down to the pub with my dad for a drink, I went light as you guys that follow me on Twitter and know I am currently on a diet, so I ended up drinking a white wine instead. When I got back, I had my dinner which was home made pizza, which was soooo delicious and tasty! After dinner, I managed to have some downtime before my niece and nephew, brother and sister in law came by for a visit for my birthday and I got a Toronto Maple Leafs Picture of the top 100 Toronto Maple Leafs, also an external hard drive which I loved both. Still gotta put up that picture still. From my parents I got cotton shirts and a PJ Bottoms which I really do need and my grandma obviously gave me money so I can use it for what I want to use it for. 

Yea I am a year older and I feel older, my knees are giving me trouble but I am a bit wiser know and how to deal with peoples bull crap they try to cause or them trying to stir the pot on me, I am much wiser how to deal with people causing problems now and I have that privilege to block IP's on chrisbontheweb.com and block people on social media as well! So be careful what you say as I have grown as a person and fixed my website to my liking.


I will talk to you on the next blog, which will be up in a few minutes.

Survivor 34 Predictions...

I have been thinking about it and I will not put out another post about last week, I am over last week and I will just not hang at the mall with friends. So with that in this blog post I would like to talk about my Predictions for Survivor 34 and what I think it will be. I've heard that it is all returning players and I think it is an all returnee season, which I am sure a lot of you Survivor Fans out there are speculating some ideas what this up coming season will be on March 8th, 2017, so here are my thoughts exactly what I think it could be: 

1) An All-Stars 2: Why you may ask, well we are long overdue for one since the last All-Stars was Season 8 and I think it due time for an All-Stars Season and I do not think it will happen anytime soon, but we all can be hopeful for another All-Stars soon!

2) Heroes Vs Villains 2: Yes it has been 13 seasons since the last Heroes Vs Villains and would love to see another one out there as the first one was one amazing and wicked season. The battle between Russell Hantz and Boston Rob Mariano within the Villains Tribe, I'd more then happily see another season like this! I can even name a few villains off my head... RC & Abi Maria are two I can off the top of my head as of right now... 

3) Finally, a Survivor Second Chances 2: I think this is probably going to be the top choice of having is a Second Chances 2 but we would of been voting already for who we would like on, so this has to be out of the question, but however can be a season in the near future. 

Which of these 3 could it be? Guess time will tell when finale hits and we find out who wins Survivor Millennials Vs Gen X and we also find out what is going to happen in Survivor 34! Cannot wait to see the finale and fine out who wins and also what is in stored for Survivor Season 3. Could be something for all we know too! You never know!

Have a great night everyone!

Tentative Schedule for Winter 2017- Everything About Reality T.V. & CBOTW Gamers Podcast

This is a different post from the recent posts of negative things I posted up on this blog recently,but that is why I got this blog to rant, thoughts and happenings around Chris B On The Web. As you guys may have heard and if you have been keeping up with my Twitter posts I have been recently talking about Amazing Race 29 and with the announcement of Season 29 of The Amazing Race I sort of got an idea of when the podcasts will come out so here is a tentative two different schedule ideas for Everything About Reality TV- Winter 2017:

Plan A:

Sundays: 8 pm EST: CBOTW Gamers Podcast (Every First Sunday of The Month)

Thursdays: 8 pm EST: Everything About Reality TV- Survivor 34 (Confirmed Wednesday, March 8th, 2017, Unsure on The Big Brother Canada Schedule yet)

Fridays: 8 pm EST: Everything About Reality TV-  Big Brother Canada 5 (Unconfirmed)

Saturdays: 8 pm EST: Everything About Reality TV- Amazing Race 29 (Confirmed April 21st, 2016) 

or

Plan B:

Sundays: 8 pm EST: CBOTW Gamers Podcast (Every First Sunday of The Month)

Thursdays: 8 pm EST: Everything About Reality TV-  Big Brother Canada 5 (Unconfirmed)

Fridays: 8 pm EST: Everything About Reality TV- Survivor 34 (Confirmed Wednesday, March 8th, 2017, Unsure on The Big Brother Canada Schedule yet)

Saturdays: 8 pm EST: Everything About Reality TV- Amazing Race 29 (Confirmed April 21st, 2016) 

It is still unknown when Big Brother Canada is coming out but Amazing Race 29 is confirmed and CBOTW Gamers Podcast as well. It is sounding like I will have some time off between the end of Hell's Kitchen and the start of Survivor and Big Brother Canada so looks like CBOTW Gamers Podcast will be the only thing on the schedule. I hope by January to know what the timetable is for sure by sometime in January and I will write an update when I have a chance.

Until the next post, have a great Thursday!

Favorite Broadcasting Platforms Both Gaming & Normal Casting....

            So it has been a year since my last normal cast and almost 3 months since my last gaming cast and I think this is appropriate as I already told you guys what platforms I have been on over the many many years I am no longer currently casting anywhere at this moment of time and will not be LIVE anymore. As I have said this in the past I am retired from casting and this time it is for good, just like YouTube I am fully retired. Just like casting, I got tired of it, I was on YouTube for 10 + years and was a caster for 5.5 Years. Now I thought this would be an interesting post for a lot of you, even thought I've spoken about my casting history this one will hilight some of the sites I did enjoy:

        First Gaming Site: Twitch.TV as I've met a lot of people there over my short time I castedon there but that's beside the point. Also I'm semi still connected to two of my listeners, Dark and my Co-Host of the new and upcoming CBOTW Gamers Podcast.

       Finally Normal Casting Sites Besides Gaming: Stickam.com, where I really got things moving on there in my casting dasys and of course my return as well and was home to the notable Shwa Nation, a Talk Radio Show my friend Joel and I did. Also met 1o1Adam and been friends with him for 4 years now. Finally Blogtv.com which actually started to cast in 2008 but it short lived it was revisited in 2011 and also 2012 as well for a short few months.

      Well there you have it those are my 3 favourite casting websites I enjoyed on. As you can tell I decided to keep out my negative thoughts about some of the other platforms such as Justcast, Vaughnlive, Stream.Me, and Hitbox. Yes I casted there but I shouldn't and will not put it down. It was good while it lasted and I enjoyed it but I left for certain reasons.

     Until The Next Post Everyone, hope you have a fantastic Sunday.

Survivor Millennials Vs Gen X New Predictions

    I have been holding off this blog post for about 2 weeks now as I wanted to wait until the right time to post about this and right now is probably the best time to break down my new predictions for the remainder of the season as my picks to win aren't there now with the latest vote out of Chris. So first of all I am very disappointed in myself for not picking better players and I think in future seasons of Survivor I will maybe even pick some underdogs for the heck of it but I think I wasn't thinking smart of picking and I have to start picking smart now, so with that lets get into my picks to make it to final 4 and to win.

     To Make Final 4, I believe Ken as he's been playing a very low key game now hasn't been in the spotlight of being a potential threat compare to Zeke and David being a threat in the game now and nobody knows that Ken also has the "Legacy Advantage" as Jessica got eliminated, will not say voted out since she got eliminated due to drawing a black rock, but Ken will have this advantage for on Day # 36 which is close and only 6 days away in the game currently. Also I think Hannah will be in the Final 4 as shes really laying low as well and not in the way of being a threat to be voted out. Also she's been protected by Adam a bit I believe she might be aligned with Adam. But since this week's episode and Zeke threatening to vote her out next tho. Next would be of course Adam, hes playing a really good game and has the advantage to steal a reward which has never happened in the history of Survivor. Finally I would say Bret would be the 4th pick to be in the final 4 as hes laid low and made a bunch of friends on the jury and his fellow tribe mates right now too.

       Now to make final 3 situation I would think Ken, Adam and Bret to potentially be there as they have all been playing good games but of course Hannah could surprise the heck out of us and start winning immunity challenges and start to dominate and show shes there to win. You're all wondering why didn't I pick David and Zeke who are both playing a good game, well I think Zeke is in trouble and could potentially be voted out soon enough and also David who's another bigger threat, I decided like I said at the top of my blog post today I would pick an underdog which I am doing now. Let's see if I am near correct and I will do a follow up post second week in December.


Have a great rest of your Saturday!

Broadcasting Platforms I Have Been On

I really never thought about this for a blog post really... In all the years I have casted on various video broadcasting websites trust me this is quite a list so this will be a nice long list and I have given an explanation of why I left too.

UStream.tv (2014) For the time being till Moved to Vaughnlive.tv

Vaughnlive.tv (2014) Casted there then left end of November due to way to many trolls and they ran me off the site fast. Was IP Banned for the stupidest reason and do not care that I was banned from the site.

There you guys have it! A list of the places I have casted and the movement over the years. Never really found a home or was able to settle, so walking away from casts was my decision and I am proud of the decision to walk away when I needed to and it was fun while it lasted!

Royal Winter Fair 2016

First of all yes I am late on this post, I haven't been in a good mood since the end of The Royal Winter Fair which was 3 days ago. The first half was great but the rest not as much. However it was a good day and I think I was over tired and still recovering from lack of sleep but been sleeping well since Monday which is a great thing! Anyways lets talk about this years The 94th Royal Winter Fair. So I left around 9 am EST which is early, however I was up at 530 in the morning, crazy I know right? I am normally up early like this in the last 4 days so I am getting this routine down. So we got on the 935 am GO Bus and headed to the Go Train Station to catch the 10:12 am train to Exhibition Place. 

So moving forward to arrival at Exhibition Place, I arrived at around 11:20 am in the morning with my dad and we got our tickets for the Royal as I didn't have the Media Pass this year but it didn't stop me from taking 442 pictures, that's right 442 pictures.... So crazy it only  registered on the camera 66 - 90 pictures, so I was utterly shocked with it but I went camera crazy. First thing we saw was the vendors for horses, like saddles, boots, cowboy/cowgirl hat. Also got to see some non GM (Generically Modified Food) It had Orange, Red and Green Peppers, Tomato's the normal ones that we have on a regular basis like on Burgers etc. Then they also had the Cherry Tomatoes which go great in a Salad. They had 2 The Wandering Bean... Oooooh yes I am making a Mr. Bean Reference there... ha ha We then proceeded to the Animals which had Sheep, the old Goats that was for Mr. Plishka, Pigs, Piglets which were soooo cute! Silly old Wabbits (Rabbits) Yes I pulled a Elmer Fudd there. There was also Sheep judging in the older building which was where the animals are and always been. Use to be an upstairs but thats not used much anymore for this type of event. We moved on to the moos as my Niece Ryleigh use to call em. There were Holsteins (Dairy, Milk) Jersey and Swiss which I do believe make the cream that you put in Coffee and certain baking. Also Guernsey cow as well. There were so many areas represented, down in the Grand Bend area, South Simcoe Durham Region East which I am from obviously, Prince Edward Island and many more! We also had Nathan's Hot Dog and of course I indulged in a Beer. 

We went to the Horse Show and saw these competitions: International Jumper - Power & Speed Competition, H/H Pony Pleasure Driving - Amateur, Belgian Four Horse Team, Hackney Pony – Amateur, Jump Canada Medal Finals, Harness Pony – Amateur and Percheron Four Horse Team. We also saw in the International Jumper Power and Speed Competition Jessica Springsteen, Bruce Springsteen's daughter which myself and my dad have seen her compete in the past.

We went in and out of the Horse Show and continued to looked around, saw the area for the kids, petting zoo, slide etc. After the Horse Show, we looked around a tad, saw a Lama, Alpaca and some sheep, Long Wool Sheep, Meat Sheep. Then of course we went to grab some food but nothing really caught my eye, I ended up skipping dinner. If they had Perogies I would of eaten but I was in a miserable mood and my dad didn't help my mood. We looked at the grains and veggies then we headed to the Horse Palace. I was in a bit of a better mood but not any better. I will leave the rest of the night at that as I really do not want to talk about it. Here are a few more pics for your pleasure, have a good Thursday!

Stampeders Concert, Friday, November 4th, 2016

I totally forgot to post yesterday as my mind was set on being with my niece and nephew and before that sleeping till 1 pm in the afternoon, my sleep is really messed up. However Friday night I got to go to The Stampeders Concert right here in town and you are wondering who the heck are the Stampeders I will save you the trouble by saying Google it... Ha Ha! Little blog humor there as you have noticed. They started in 1966 and they originally have 6 members, now down to 3 members and still the original 3, Ronnie, Rich and Kim. When they first started the concert, I had to try and grasp the music but I'd say after 2 - 3 songs I got right into it. Ronnie, Kim and Rich's humor was very comical and the way they made smartass remarks with each other kept me on laughing. Their was one moment I was literally in tears and rubbing my eyes from laughing so hard. I also was familar with a few songs such as Sweet City Woman, Carry Me and their rendition of Hit The Road Jack featuring Wolfman Jack (but he wasn't there, Ronnie fit the role for that part of the song) The two top favorite versions of Hit The Road Jack as follow

The Stampeders: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOVbJ9kMkyw 
Ray Charles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyVuYAHiZb8

Trust me I was laughing at the lyrics as their are ridiculous lyrics but one of the funniest oldies song out there. We had a 15 minute break in between the 2 sets. At he very end the second or 3rd last song was Sweet City Woman which I think was the best idea putting one of their most popular songs out there for the end, like the saying goes, save the best for last! Kim had one amazing drumming solo at the end of the and it amazed me how he could be able to do that in his 70's and he went on with his solo about 3 - 4 minutes and it wasn't light strokes, it was hard core drumming and I was so amazed by it too! Ronnie saying this which was funny: "Were too old to go off then come back on" and of course they did their On Core for 2 more songs.

On our way out we didn't realize that we were in the line for autographs and of course my mom said, "Chris would like to get an autograph" I didn't say say no, I said yes of course! Once in a lifetime opportunity. so we waited in line for the singing trio to come out and the lineup went fast as we were near the top of the seats to begin with. When it came to my turn I quickly bought a The Stampeders CD and got Rich, Kim and Ronnie to sign it both and was really neat to talk to Rock Stars from back in the good ole day! Ronnie of course made me laugh calling Kim an old guy... Haha. 

In conclusion to this rather lengthy blog post but you guys seem to enjoy the longer posts from time to time but anyways I told my mom and dad I'd like to see more older bands in person, I will not be young forever and I should enjoy these moments and seeing some familiar bands from the 80's and 90's. Also I am very familiar with these bands as I GREW up with these bands living with my parents all my life and listening to the music in the car traveling on vacations or to places locally or to the big smoke Toronto!

Have a great Sunday!

Halloween 2016 & Podcast Update!

I will start with my Halloween 2016, it was good, I slept till 11 am this morning and was up since then and do not feel sleepy for some reason but I slept a majority of the night which is good now I am back to my old ways of being up past 1 am, almost 130 am EST! LOL. Anyways I am in good spirits and my spirits been up lately which I will get into a little into this post. I was thrilled that it is Halloween as because I usually hand out the candy and sometimes I dress up for Halloween but this year I didn't plus it was a bit nippy out. I spent sometime down in my office here and I nearly recorded the last of the podcasts that I am behind on but that's in the morning I will be spending an hour on that and posting it on up so I am ready for Thursday night on posting on time for once. But back to the Halloween evening I had, I had dinner, Chicken Cesar Salad which was really good! I spent a tad bit more time down here in my office then was upstairs and out on the front layered up as it was a tad nippy out at the start. Had 34 kids which isn't great amount this year compare to last year but every year it is different year by year! I did some writing in my book was on Facebook chatting with my friends and on Twitter of course seeing the craziness of the followers growing by the moment, got to interact with the kids and some of the parents. Had a few new ideas for the house for Halloween next year as well.  Took a picture which turned out so amazing: 

Afterwards I had a bit of candy left over, mainly M & M's Chocolate and Peanuts with Chocolate watched some YouTube video laid down hoping I'd sleep as I was feeling tired yet I am up writing this blog post for you guys right now. So from there I came back to my Studio to fiddle around and I decided it would be fun to do a chart and Graph of the podcast views! and as I went through each week with all 3 shows that I listed: Survivor: Millennials Vs GenX, Hell's Kitchen 16 & soon to be added to the list Masterchef Junior Season 5, I found out these Stats on the podcast: 

My Surprise was Hell's Kitchen has the edge by 6% but both of the Recaps within that podcast is doing extremely well  and I am eager to be adding in the 3rd Reality TV Show soon! What I am questioning is when Amazing Race 29 is coming out but we will wait and see when that comes out!

Have a great Night or Day!

Lack of Sleep....

In the last several days ever since the night before the Autism Celebration which I slept at night last, hoping I will go lie down soon to fall asleep for even a few hours, but ever since the event I haven't slept at night much, was asleep maybe 2 - 3 nights before the event 2 - 3 hours that's it but since then I have been awake at night and not able to sleep and tonight I am feeling like I am ready to sleep at least a few hours but this sleep deprive is gotta stop because I am tired and my moods are really bad at times where I am snapping at my own parents and I think they know it is the lack of sleep. There is nothing Dr's can do for me at this point, I gotta just deal with it and try and make the best of it. 

Now, usually after a few days I end up going to bed and sleeping through the night and usually up at 4 or 430 am EST... LMAO, yes it is a very early morning but I get a lot. Now if I could get a a routine like 430 or 5 am wake ups and in bed by 930 pm that would be amazing to keep the routine going I would probably be in a happier place right now.  So what is my plan you may ask? Well I am planning on going to bed soon as this blog is posted and sleeping till at least 5 or 6 am EST then getting up getting my day started. Then hopefully I will be in bed at 930 pm later on and hopefully it fixes this screwed up sleep. Yes I am frustrated by this, yes I want this to all change and get my life back on track hopefully soon and I am going to start making changes in my life starting Monday with a 4 day treadmill and exercise routine and going to bed earlier and so on. I will do weekly updates on the blog like on Fridays how it is going.


Have a Great Night and/or Day!
